About this trial

The purpose of this study is to identify potential genetic and other molecular biomarkers of response to radiation therapy in breast cancer that may help to personalize breast cancer radiation treatment in the future.

Qualifiers

Breast cancer patients with DCIS with an indication for adjuvant radiation therapy

Disqualifiers

Any specific systemic oncological therapy

Trial population

Breast cancer patients with non invasive ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) with an indication for postoperative radiation treatment.

Adverse events of radiation therapy

We will assess the proportion of patients exhibiting skin and cardiac adverse events after radiotherapy using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, NYHA class, measurement of cardiac biomarkers and cardiac imaging

Time frame
Within 1 month after completion of radiotherapy
2

Adverse events of radiation therapy

We will assess the proportion of patients exhibiting skin and cardiac adverse events after radiotherapy using Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events, NYHA class, measurement of cardiac biomarkers and cardiac imaging

Time frame
6 months after radiotherapy
